Lava recently came out its new camera centric flag bearer V5 in its effort to woo photography enthusiasts. The phone is packed with some impressive specs offered at a competitive price. Here’s our initial impression of Lava V5 based on its features, specification and price in India.

Lava V5 boasts of a 5.5-inch HD display with a resolution of 1280x720 pixels which are layered with a Corning Gorilla Glass 3 protection. The phone is powered by a 1.3GHz 64-bit MediaTek quad-core chipset coupled with 3GB of LPDDR3 RAM. It runs on Star OS 2.0 which is based on Android Lollipop 5.1 and company has promised a Marshmallow update in the feature. The phone has an internal storage of 16GB which can be bumped up to 32GB via microSD card.

Lava V5 sports a 13-megapixel primary camera at the back which features a 3M2 ISOCELL Sensor sourced from Samsung, PDAF, f2.0 aperture and dual LED flash. The default camera app features HDR, QR Code and Multi Angle View among others modes. At the front, V5 wears an 8-megapixel selfie shooter with flash and a wide angle lens. Another important aspect of Lava V5 spec-sheet is its support for VoLTE and dual SIM 4G support.

The Lava V5 price in India is Rs. 11,499. In this world of Internet, Lava V5 is retailing on ebay and is also available for buying on offline channels. Lava V5 will have to compete with much advanced and feature rich phone like Le Eco Le 1s, Lenovo Vibe K4 Note, and Honor 5X, all of which are available in same price range. Lava V5 will have trouble overshadowing this competition.

Its really very good mobile in this price. Cameara is good. We can use 4-5 hours data for full charging
